It's probably something simple, but I'd need your help anyway on where I can adjust login / resetting password forms labels? (e.g. I want to change "Username or Email" label)

Hi Piotr

As the Toolset custom login forms are built on standard WordPress login forms you can use the login_form_defaults filter to modify the labels, as shown in this code sample (where I add custom labels so that they are suitable for translation):

function tssupp_custom_label( $args ){

  $args['label_username'] = __( 'Custom username label', 'tssupp' );
  $args['label_password'] = __( 'Custom password label', 'tssupp' );
  $args['label_remember'] = __( 'Custom remember label', 'tssupp' );
  $args['label_log_in'] = __( 'Custom log_in label', 'tssupp' );

  return $args;
}
add_filter( 'login_form_defaults', 'tssupp_custom_label' );
